Wine Details
Price:
$22.00 per bottle
Description:
As the other white "Rhone" varietal in our lineup, the grapes for this wine come from the nearby Camp 4 vineyard. Unlike the partially tank fermented Viognier, this wine has undergone 100% French oak barrel fermentation and complete malolactic fermentation resulting in a wine that goes up a notch in body and complexity. It reveals viscous, ultra-ripe, mango, pineapple and pear flavors with a touch of honey. Roussanne is not often bottled by itself, but we think it deserves a chance to stand up and be noticed by those in the desperate search for white wines with character. Its a great accent to crab, lobster or that rare abalone cookout. While ready to drink now, this is a deep and textured enough white wine to continue to improve with a little bottle age.
